We would ask you to pray for direction as we explore an opportunity. The folks at Obadiah Learning and Development at Punta, Dipolog City, offer a tremendous service in their outreach. They have a school in the church building, where the children are taught regular academic subjects as well as Bible lessons.
In addition to the teaching, the school provides food, uniform, shoes, books, paper, pencils and fare to weekly church services. Plus there are quarterly fees. In non-fee months, the cost per child is about $36 per month. When the government fees are due, the cost is about $50 per child. Right now, we have 13 students who need the regular $36 in expenses, plus four more who are waiting to register. They will need $50 this month to include the fees.
Perhaps you would like to sponsor a child for this ministry. We will work on a schedule to know what months the fees are due, but please consider if maybe God would have you sponsor a child through this ministry. It reaps eternal rewards. If you are not led to give, then we would appreciate your prayers.
Please pray for us as we consider this aspect of the ministry. Please also pray for God's provision. We need about $460 by the end of next week for 13 of the students, so please pray God will provide it. He provided in January, and we pray for His provision this month, too. Also, we would like to get the additional four students registered and provided for, and that cost is about $200. Please pray God would supply those needs.
